How Much Does Beyonce Weigh – Beyonce’s Diet Plan for Dreamgirls

March 4, 2009 by Mary Wayne 

How much does Beyonce Knowles weigh in her Dreamgirls role? She’s one of the lead stars in the movie “Dreamgirls” drew flak for the use of the Master Cleanse diet plan in her preparations for the movie. It has been reported that Beyonce lightened up between fourteen and twenty pounds to portray a passage of time that affected the overall appearance of her character in the movie. Her weight loss has been instrumental in getting an Academy Award nomination for the role that she played in the movie. Many reporters cited that she lost weight due to a “starvation diet” of a mixture of either “cayenne pepper with water” or “maple syrup with water”. Though the diet is correctly indicated, the negative comments by the diva have hurt the credibility and marketability of the plan.

She was quoted as saying that she felt like she was “dying” while on the regimen and after the duration of the plan, she “gobbled up” fatty and processed food which resulted in her regaining the weight she had lost. These events have been categorized by the media as another one of those starlets going on an anorexic episode by fad dieting. This is clearly a misrepresentation of the Master Cleanse as it is not a diet plan but is a means to clean up the body of toxins accumulated in the body and not as means to the end of weight loss. The result of the comments of the Pop Diva has placed Master Cleanse in a different light from its original purpose. But it worked for her portrayal of her role in Dreamgirls and everyone is wondering about how much does Beyonce weight now.
